As German media theory is becoming aVailable in translation across the globe, what kind of readings and critiques is it receiving? In what kind of theoretical and socio-political contexts are such readings performed? The preconference, hosted by the Goethe Institut, will offer a forum to discuss the exchange of media theory between German-language writers and the global community of communication scholars. 3109 Annual Board of Directors Meeting of the International Communication Association (continued) Friday Sponsored Sessions 8:00–12:00 Georgetown East (Washington Hilton, Concourse Level) 31100 PRECONFERENCE: Environmental Communication Beyond Boundaries: Transnational, International, and Comparative Approaches to Understanding Environmental Issues Friday Sponsored Sessions 8:00–17:00 OFFSITE: Chairs George Suzannah EVans Comfort, Indiana U Bloomington, USA Washington U Julia Metag, U of Fribourg, SWITZERLAND School of Public Bruno Takahashi, Michigan State U, USA Health Jagadish Thaker, Massey U, NEW ZEALAND The aim of this preconference is to bring together scholars from around the world to share research related to transnational and international aspects of enVironmental communication. While enVironmental issues are often fundamentally global in that causes and effects of enVironmental risk can be separated by thousands of miles and connected by the forces of globalization, most research related to enVironmental communication has focused on indiVidual nations as the site of inquiry. In addition, enVironmental communication research has primarily featured nations in the Global North. Therefore, this preconference especially welcomes research related to and/or produced in the Global South. 3111 PRECONFERENCE: Organizational Communication Doctoral Consortium Friday Sponsored Sessions 8:00–17:00 Monroe Chair (Washington Timothy Kuhn, U of Colorado Boulder, USA Hilton, Discussants Concourse Oana Albu, U of Southern Denmark, DENMARK Level) Joshua Barbour, U of Texas at Austin, USA KeVin Barge, Texas A&M U, USA William Barley, U of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, USA Patrice Buzzanell, U of South Florida, USA François Cooren, U de Montréal, CANADA Joelle Cruz, U of Colorado Boulder, USA ShiV Ganesh, Massey U, NEW ZEALAND Jennifer Gibbs, U of California, Santa Barbara, USA Kate Harris, U of Minnesota, USA Laurie Lewis, Rutgers U, USA Rebecca Meisenbach, U of Missouri, USA Connie Yuan, Cornell U, USA This doctoral consortium is open to doctoral students at all leVels of study.

    Development of the Global Film Industry The global film industry has witnessed significant transformations in the past few years. Regions outside the USA have begun to prosper while non-traditional produc- tion companies such as Netflix have assumed a larger market share and online movies adapted from literature have continued to gain in popularity. How have these trends shaped the global film industry? This book answers this question by analyzing an increasingly globalized business through a global lens. Development of the Global Film Industry examines the recent history and current state of the business in all parts of the world. While many existing studies focus on the internal workings of the industry, such as production, distribution and screening, this study takes a “big picture” view, encompassing the transnational integration of the cultural and entertainment industry as a whole, and pays more attention to the coordinated develop- ment of the film industry in the light of influence from literature, television, animation, games and other sectors. This volume is a critical reference for students, scholars and the public to help them understand the major trends facing the global film industry in today’s world. Qiao Li is Associate Professor at Taylor’s University, Selangor, Malaysia, and Visiting Professor at the Université Paris 1 Panthéon- Sorbonne. He has a PhD in Film Studies from the University of Gloucestershire, UK, with expertise in Chinese- language cinema. He is a PhD supervisor, a film festival jury member, and an enthusiast of digital filmmaking with award- winning short films. He is the editor ofMigration and Memory: Arts and Cinemas of the Chinese Diaspora (Maison des Sciences et de l’Homme du Pacifique, 2019).

  • Music Video As Black Art
    IN FOCUS: Modes of Black Liquidity: Music Video as Black Art The Unruly Archives of Black Music Videos by ALESSANDRA RAENGO and LAUREN MCLEOD CRAMER, editors idway through Kahlil Joseph’s short fi lm Music Is My Mis- tress (2017), the cellist and singer Kelsey Lu turns to Ishmael Butler, a rapper and member of the hip-hop duo Shabazz Palaces, to ask a question. The dialogue is inaudible, but an intertitle appears on screen: “HER: Who is your favorite fi lm- Mmaker?” “HIM: Miles Davis.” This moment of Black audiovisual appreciation anticipates a conversation between Black popular cul- ture scholars Uri McMillan and Mark Anthony Neal that inspires the subtitle for this In Focus dossier: “Music Video as Black Art.”1 McMillan and Neal interpret the complexity of contemporary Black music video production as a “return” to its status as “art”— and specifi cally as Black art—that self-consciously uses visual and sonic citations from various realms of Black expressive culture in- cluding the visual and performing arts, fashion, design, and, obvi- ously, the rich history of Black music and Black music production. McMillan and Neal implicitly refer to an earlier, more recogniz- able moment in Black music video history, the mid-1990s and early 2000s, when Hype Williams defi ned music video aesthetics as one of the single most important innovators of the form. Although it is rarely addressed in the literature on music videos, the glare of the prolifi c fi lmmaker’s infl uence extends beyond his signature lumi- nous visual style; Williams distinguished the Black music video as a creative laboratory for a new generation of artists such as Arthur Jafa, Kahlil Joseph, Bradford Young, and Jenn Nkiru.
